"Do they think they can get away with that? They don't care, they just don't care," said Frank Binetti.

Police arrested Callejo Monday evening, saying his drunken cruise with his kids in tow ended when he ran into the back of an SUV.

"I just feel so bad for those kids; I'm pretty sure they were scared to death," Cabrera said.

"It's a very unfortunate situation, it could have happened to anybody, but I'm glad he didn't go further than that."

Callejo didn't have a driver's license with him, and he refused to take a breathalyzer test.

People at the shopping center where it happened are frustrated a father would drink and drive with his children.

"How are you going to stop them from having these little children in danger? How are you going to stop that? And not only that, these children grow up seeing their parents drink and things like that and it affects these children," Binetti said.

"It makes me think he pretty much doesn't care," Cabrera said.

"Think about your kids first before you do something stupid," said Harley Hallman.
